damn ... on the one hand I really hate that movie (do they really have to make a musical out of everything? XD), on the other hand IT'S PETER! (hey, and with that "title" some thirty years ago he might have played the title role himself *g* )

It's good to know that he's working again regularly though. :)

Thanks Sneaks, I was just about to post this myself.

Odd one to turn into a musical, but I actually enjoyed the film, so it could be interesting.

A thought I had, This looks to be the first time in the UK which means...

ORIGINAL LONDON CAST RECORDING!!!!

It'll be nice to have Pete sing something other than 'Button moon' on the ol' iTunes.

*hugs*

Don't get too excited about a London recording. There is already a Broadway recording and I would be very, very surprised if they released a London one. Many shows that have transfered to the West End, such as Wicked, Avenue Q and Spamalot, only have Broadway recordings. From the looks of it, once a cast recording is released, that is the only version available.

Oh Sure, spoil my buzz.

Joseph has had a few release's and Blood brothers has UK and US versions.

Didn't Spamalot transfer with Tim Curry? An O.L.C.R. with him may have been redundant

We could ask, a lot. It worked with getting a DT Hamet DVD. :)

It did. The original London cast sort of was the original broadway cast, so ...
